Become a Healthy Volunteer

NIAID's important clinical trial work cannot be done without the participation of healthy volunteers! Healthy volunteers are people with no known significant health problems.

Help Make a Difference

As a healthy volunteer you will provide researchers with crucial data because your health information can be used as a comparison. In some studies, researchers need to compare healthy volunteers with people who have a specific disease or condition.

Featured Clinical Studies

A healthy volunteer receives an experimental universal influenza vaccine known as H1ssF_3928 as part of a Phase 1 clinical trial at the NIH Clinical Center in Bethesda, Maryland. Scientists at NIAID’s Vaccine Research Center (VRC) developed the vaccine and are leading the clinical trial. Floreliz Mendoza, nurse specialist and study coordinator at the VRC Clinical Trials Program performs the vaccination as trial principal investigator, Dr. Grace Chen, VRC Clinical Trials Program, observes.

Natural History and Genetics of Food Allergy and Related Conditions

About 15 million Americans have a food allergy. Because there are no cures or effective prevention or treatment for food allergies, researchers want to learn more about them.

"I connected with the Vaccine Research Center (VRC) to promote HIV vaccine research. Ultimately, I want to do all I can to raise awareness in the community about HIV/AIDS and help those infected with the virus get the support they need. Together, we can stop the spread of this devastating disease."
